First Reggae Interview on L.A. Renaissance with Asante Amen

Im excited this Friday we are starting the weekend off with beautiful reggae music all the way from Jamaica. Join me to interview Asante Amen. As a performer he has graced the stages of some of the more prestigious events in reggae music such as; Rebel Salute (JA), Irie Jamboree (USA), St. Mary Mi Come From (JA) and The Woodstock Reggae Festival (USA) among others. He has performed in the United States of America, the Bahamas, Grenada and all across Jamaica; however this is just the beginning for Asante as he looks forward to his music carrying him to places and venues across the Caribbean, Europe, Asia and Africa. Asante Amen has had the privilege of collaborating on tracks with artists such as Lutan Fyah and Jah Thundah as well as a host of other local and international reggae artists. He has also performed alongside Reggae greats such as Luciano, Tony Rebel, L,U.S.T, Ken Boothe, Queen Ifrica and Beenie Man to name a few. For Asante, music speaks to him in a very special way and so far, by all accounts, his singles releases to date have been well received by reggae fans across the world. In 2011 Asante was in full swing as he enjoyed major rotation across the USA, the Netherlands, mainland Europe and many Isles across the Caribbean for the first half of the year with singles, WIPE YOUR TEARS (Nite Lite Prodns) and BEATING (High Priest Recs). He also enjoyed a one month stay on the KDVS 90.3 FM Reggae/African Top 25 album chart in California, USA at the beginning of the year for the EP release of his debut underground album OVER THE YEARS: The Underground Project.
